Thru, f/k/a Trujillo, first caught my ear way back in the day with his gruff delivery, slick wordplay, and his unique way of describing life through his lens. Not an easy task. These days, Thru is still doing that, whether it’s dropping free projects or albums, you can hear the hunger like the crackle of vinyl. In this interview, Thru tackles a variety of topics as he continues to assert his place in the hip-hop canon as one of the best that needs to be discovered.

Cole James Cash is a producer you should be checking for, whether it’s his intricate instrumental projects or how he has the ability to bring the gutterest of gutter bars out of MCs. Hailing from the Bay Area, Cole James Cash was originally into the EDM scene as a DJ before delving into the production game. As he made headway in the game, though, his addiction to prescription pills became so overpowering that Cole James Cash did a stint in rehab. Today, while fighting the urge to go back to that life, we find the talented producer focused on raising his family and his upcoming projects, the most recent of which will be Street Champion, an album inspired by the classic Street Fighter II. Check out Cole James Cash in this exclusive interview, as he details putting the album together, fighting his addiction, his production process, and much more.

From his crew the Brown Bag All-Stars to producing for 50 Cent and Onyx, Audible Doctor has carved a niche for himself in a genre where everyone’s got a beat tape and a demo. Lately, though, A.D. has been proving that he can also put a project together, as he’s dropped a string of EPs that not only put his production talents on full blast but also his skills as an MC, something he did way before he ever touched a drum machine. In this exclusive interiew, Audible Doctor talks about his recent projects, including a very dope one with Chicago MC A.K., as well as what’s going on with the BBAS album, the beat game, who he wants to work with, and much more.

Ron Browz is one of those producers who everyone should be talking about. Few have laid down as many consistent bangers as the Etherboy, going back to the Big L days to Nas’s “Ether” to 50 Cent, Nicki Minaj, and Ludacris. Most recently, Browz has laid down bangers for Method Man, Papoose, and Remy Ma, while focusing on his own label, Etherboy Records, and his artists on the label, Belle and Mani Miles. Whether he’s producing for an A-list MC like Method Man or Papoose or breaking an artist like Belle, Browz’s production is consistently dope. We caught up with Ron to talk about his recent work, making the “Ether,” and much more.

“I’m the plug, I got whatever you need,” Trigger-Happy Pappy raps on his DJ Premier-assisted cut “The Plug”. The Brooklyn MC has made a living out of giving fans exactly what he thought they needed – clever boom-bap lyrics that resonated with fans far outside of New York. Whether it was with near 80-minute mixtapes that he seemed to drop damn-near every month or the long-awaited debut album The Nacirema Dream, Papoose’s creative concepts and lyrical dexterity put him in a class above other MCs, from the mixtape era, from New York, from anywhere, period. With a new album, You Can’t Stop Destiny, we find Papoose delving into more personal issues, such as fatherhood, marital bliss, and not playing the field, while never straying from his classic punchlines and aggressive delivery. Whether he’s rapping next to his wife Remy Ma or rocking over a classic backdrop from DJ Premier, Showbiz, or Ron Browz, Papoose shines on his latest. He recently sat down with WeGoinIN to discuss the album, his life, Love and Hip-Hop, and much more in this exclusive interview.

Few artists embody New York hip-hop the way St. Laz does. From the care in each verse down to the syllable to the impressive catalogue he’s released over the years, Laz’s place in hip-hop is cemented like the Brownsville sidewalks he came up on. From putting together his Pottersfield crew to working with artists like Jadakiss, Jim Jones, and DJ Kay Slay, Laz has not only gotten the listens and views, but he’s crafted a sound that translates both the pain and the hope of the come up. Taking some time to talk about his origins in the game, his PF team, why he can’t stop making music, and much more, Laz drops some gems in this exclusive interview while dropping an exclusive 730 cut at the end.
